However, community based estimates of low glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and proteinuria are few. Validity of traditional serum creatinine based GFR estimating equations in South Asian subjects is also debatable. We intended to estimate and compare the prevalence of low GFR, proteinuria and ...
Multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to estimate the risk of GFR for HT. Stratification analyses were done according to the presence of HT high risk factors: atrial fibrillation (AF), thrombolysis and large size infarction. Additional logistic regression model for symptomatic HTs was ...
A more accurate method to estimate glomerular filtration rate from serum creatinine Ann Intern Med, 139 (1999), pp. 461-470 Google Scholar 37. B.W. Hollis Assay of circulating 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D involving a novel single-cartridge extraction and purification procedure Clin Chem, 32 (1986)...
GFR(6). In individuals with established ESRD, only half are expected to survive an acute CV event(4,7). Compared to age-adjusted CVD mortality in the non-CKD population, this estimate is 15–30 times higher, a discrepancy that increases among younger CKD cohorts(8). Importantly, although ...
We used mixed-effects regression models to estimate mean and upper 95th predic- tion interval of s[Cr] for each GA group from birth to 34–36 wk post menstrual age (PMA). Results: In phase I, s[Cr] increased after birth, then returned slowly to baseline. The duration of phase I ...
The volume CT dose index (CTDIvol) and dose length product (DLP) in the patient protocol were used to estimate radiation exposure. The conversion factor to effective organ dose was chosen according to the ‘European Guidelines for Multislice Computed Tomography (dose conversion coefficients of thora...
The resulting treatment contrast will be reported as a point estimate and as a 95% confidence interval. Secondary outcomes For all secondary outcomes other than health-related quality of life, we will undertake multivariate (repeated outcomes) endpoint analysis. For health-related quality of life, ...
Therefore, we could not perform a Mendelian randomization study to provide an unbiased ‘causal’ estimate of the effect(s) of caffeine. The strengths of the present study include its relatively large sample size, prospective design and long-term follow-up. In addition our study provided ...
Creatinine is a breakdown metabolite of creatine phosphate in muscle1. It is eliminated by kidneys, mostly via glomerular filtration and partly via secretion at proximal tubule1,2. Therefore, creatinine clearance could be used to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) by measuring serum creat...
Development and validation of a mathematical equation to estimate glomerular filtration rate in cirrhosis: The royal free hospital cirrhosis glomerular filtration rate. Current expressions based on serum creatinine concentration overestimate kidney function in cirrhosis, leading to significant differences between...
